Let me put it to you like this, there is never a dull day at my location. My DD was broken into last yr so now I park out front in the view of many cameras and haven't had any issues since. I even assist lost prevention from time to time pinning dn criminals while we wait for Cherry Hill PH to show. Camden still has it's issues to put it mildly. Unfortunately our location attract's a bad element and it really sucks because the people that benefit most from Wal-Mart are subjected to this.
